    Sorry, got to the limit of pi$$ boiling over the state of NUFC and needed light relief. So, with that in mind...

    What makes up the best XI in the World right now? FIFA voting has it's opinion, but is everyone good in Spain? Let's go with the en vogue 4-3-3;

    Hart

    Lahm, Vidic, Subotic, Cole

    Iniesta, Toure, Xavi

    Ronaldo, Falcao, Messi

    What's yours?

    Gotta say - have you seen that Ibra has been rinsing France! Top score by like 5 goals. One of my favourite players of all time. And scorer of the finest goal I have ever seen. Ahead of Falcao right now? Probably not. But first off the bench.

    I'd reluctantly agree to a straight swap for Shola & Willo.

    Falcao is the best poacher/striker, but he requires deliveries. Ibra can provide more for his team, and is a better technical player.

    I'd put him in my team selection.

    I get Ronaldo, Messi and when needed Di Maria for delivery. Van Persie as ST and Falcao as CF. Ronaldo can act if needed as 3d forward on the right.
    My setup is all about flexibility, a 3-6-1 or 3-4-3 works as well with these players. Who needs 4 defenders anyways when you got 60% possession?

    Shola and Willo for Ibrahimovic and Toure?

    How much cash would we get back to make the deal viable?

    A great team needs a great formation:

    ----------------Neuer----------------
    ---------Silva----------Kompany------
    ---------------Iniesta----------------
    Messi---Hazard--------D.Silva--Ronaldo
    --------RVP----Falcao---Ibra---------

    :D
